A glitch in our bot resulting in way too many posts recently (self.printsf)

Sorry for multiple posts spamming people's feed over the past few hours! Our bot became a bit frisky. I think it's all sorted now.

Can you maybe delete almost all of these crossposts?

It puts a terrible spotlight on the sublemmy and I think using bots to populate the community with xposts from reddit is poor anyway.

Even if, 1-2 posts per day is more than enough to let it grow. My feed is still fucked because of your bot

Sure, I'll delete some of them. A few of them have various comments on them already, and several of them have a few upvotes, so I'll leave those ones.

I'm just going to chime in to note that I'll be blocking this community. I'm simply not interested in having a community entirely reliant on a bot to generate the illusion of activity in my feed.

Understood, and no worries. Yeah, it shouldn't have been overwhelmed with posts like that. And, of course, as discussed the bot is only temporary in any case. That bug threw us for a loop for sure. Give the community a try again in a few days if you like.
